I R a Geeneus…

You may recall that I was lamenting earlier this week that several of my news feeds had choked and died. I don’t give up easily…

As I mentioned in that earlier news item, I did a bunch of fiddling around with a Google news “scraper” written by Julian [email protected]. Since then, I’ve made a few more changes to the regular expressions and some code simplification (Julian’s original code included keyword searching), and voila! Top news items appear on my page.

Its not pretty, but it works.
